Biography
- "What about the bounty hunters? Are they still down there?"
"I don't think so. We haven't seen them in a while." - ―Jedi General Anakin Skywalker, and the lieutenant
Grown on the planet Kamino from the DNA of Jango Fett,[1] a bounty hunter who became the template of the clone trooper army,[3] this clone was a Clone Lieutenant and Advanced Recon Force trooper in the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars who served in a regiment.[2]
After Rotta, Jabba Desilijic Tiure's son, was kidnapped by a band of alleged bounty hunters, the lieutenant was dispatched along with an ARF Clone Commander in a Nu-class attack/transport shuttle to track down the bounty hunters and uncover Rotta's location.[2]
The ARF Commander and the ARF Lieutenant reporting to General Skywalker.
After tracking bounty hunters dispatched by Jabba himself to the B'omarr Order Monastery on the planet of Teth, the commander ordered the lieutenant to contact Jedi General Mace Windu, where the commander then informed him on the situation. The commander told Windu that the monastery was too heavily fortified for them to do anything by themselves, and received the order to stay hidden and to await further orders. Once Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and the 501st Legion arrived in the Teth system, the ARF troopers made their way to Skywalker's Acclamator-class transgalactic military assault ship with their Nu-class transport. Landing in the hangar, the lieutenant reported to General Skywalker that there were at least two droid battalions protecting the monastery, and that landing on the monastery would not be possible.[2]
